Microprocessor Supervisory Circuit
Figure 1. Block Diagram
Many µP-based products require manual-reset capabil-
ity, allowing the operator or test technician to initiate a
reset. The Manual Reset Input (MR) can be connected
directly to a switch, without an external pull-up resistor
or debouncing network. It connects to a 1.25V com-
parator, and has a pull-up to V
1. The propagation delay from asserting MR to RESET
asserted is 4µs typical. Pulsing MR low for a minimum
of 15µs resets all the internal counters, sets the
Watchdog Output (WDO) and Watchdog-Pulse Output

(WDPO) high, and sets the Set Watchdog-Timeout
(SWT) input to V
ed to V
chip-enable function, setting the Chip-Enable Output
(CE OUT) to a high state. The RESET output remains
active as long as MR is held low, and the reset-timeout
period begins after MR returns high (Figure 2).
Use this input as either a digital-logic input or a second
low-line comparator. Normal TTL/CMOS levels can be
wire-OR connected via pull-down diodes (Figure 3),
and open-drain/collector outputs can be wire-ORed
directly.
